Formal, Neutral, Informal: Use the correct register in English!

The English language has such a large vocabulary, and you’ll often find several different words with the same meaning. But each word has a different effect, because it can be either formal, informal, or somewhere in between. Another name for these different types of word is ‘register’. In this class, you’ll see examples of words to choose from in different contexts - for example, if you like a film, would you call it splendid, good, or cool? www.engvid.com/formal-neutral...

Hello Gill, it is almost midnight here in Türkiye. I am not able to watch the video now sorry, I will in the morning. I am sure that You came with a very productive lesson again, thanks in advance. It's 21 of March tomorrow, I wasn't used to celebrate it till I studied at the university in Bishkek/ Krgyzstan. After living there for 5 years and experiencing the cold they have there I do celebrate it even in our Izmir , which has a Mediterranean climate. It will be the spring equinox and day and night will be equalised. How wonderful it is isn't it ? I wish every human and nation and country will have the same chance someday. I am sorry for Cuba, They have shortages in every condition of life recently even They don't have any war or something. Why shouldn't They live like the other wealthy countries, why They don't deserve it, who makes it to Them? Anyways, wish You happy, healthy, prosperous spring and years ahead, greetings and Blessings from Türkiye😘🤗🤞🙏!

[@devjanichakraborty6204]

Thanks, Ma'am Gill ! This is a wonderful lesson on formal, neutral and informal, three different registers in vocabulary ! I personally feel that there can be another way of looking at it. The words commonly used by three generations : the older people, their children and their grandchildren respectively.😊

[@devjanichakraborty6204]

Detest is the word used in French more often than in English !

[@m.ridzwan99-26]

Thank you teacher

[@plutoregolo9130]

Thank you Gill, interesting video. All these informal words are of Latin origin. Latin: deliciosus, appetitus, observo, percipio, excellens, splendidus, detestabilis, fundus". Horrible, from latin "horribilis". Horror is a latin word:" horror, horroris" (latin genitive). In Latin "observo" means "to look carefully". In Latin "video" means " I look, I see" (first singular person)

[@iqbalpark3811]

Thank you Gill and you are the good teacher.

Great lessons, really! Thank you so much. Could you please make a lesson on 'yet', 'still' vs 'already'?

[@acinarmemisoglu]

Hi Gil, It is the best thing to learn from you. Do you give an online lesson?

[@alfieromonteverdi7980]

If all English people spoke like Gill, we would understand everything!!! But unfortunately for us they speak differently!!! As usual a very useful lesson. Take care Gill.

[@AlexandreFerreira-td7vo]

I could assure you that she is being well articulated purposely because she knows she is teaching English for foreigners and she knows most of us can't understand them when they are sounding themselves naturally, as they do it do it speaking to each other in their duties and rendezvous . But, yes, I agree, she is an amazing teacher, she looks like doing it for long time, she knows what she does.

[@monicafranganillo2397]

¡Qué crack!👍🏻

[@Aquiles-wq8uz]

Thanks ma'am

[@heathrowsan4817]

Money formal: funds+ funding neutral: money + cash informal: dosh + readies

[@JuliaDutta]

Hello Gill! If I may make a point, detestable is a strong word Gill. I like inappropriate. Gross is okay I guess. Thank you for this lesson. very good indeed!

[@nattybking]

My twins, aged three, both use the word delicious. They picked it up during our pretend picnics.

[@Andrea-ui1fb]

Hello Mrs Gil, kindly can you tell me if you have had, lot of years ago a role of a english teacher of Czechoslovak pilots in a Czechoslovak film?

[@AndyCrazo]

[@human_rights_activist]

Formal english is french with extra steps

[@buonleo]

I am vexed by the prospect of partaking in the repast presented afore me. The fare seems lacking in appeal and does not inspire my palate. 😅

[@user-oi2cw9qb2i]

Question to english teachers, What is correct to say: different from or different than? In the example below, which is correct? a) Cost of life has a different meaning than cost of living. b) Cost of life has a different meaning from cost of living?
